Help Setting up a "Deal Site"

    I want to setup one of those deal sites that just list coupons and discounts from affiliates like amazon.com and office depot. With my affiliate link of course.

    A site like one of these:
    dealhack.com
    bensbargains.net

    Can anyone offer any insight on how to automate the deal displays? I don't want to have to constantly be updating the entries.

    thanks in advance,

    as far as i am aware those are updated manually by staff. as the deals have to be found then add you link to them.

    I run a site like this - coupon dot SC and I have to automate everything because it is user submitted. Unless you can find and get permission to use a direct RSS feed or something, you'll have no other choice since you need to verify the authencity of each coupon submitted.

    Check this website www.goldencan.com
    I tested in my website and works well. It's customizable and works with a lot of affiliates. I hope this is more of what you need....
